About us

We make life easier for NHS staff, patients and suppliers by reimagining shared corporate services for the digital age. Co-created with, and for the people that use them, our back- and middle-office shared solutions work together to deliver unparalleled, demonstrable resilience and value for money. Solutions that resolve both the frustrating inefficiencies and the big challenges. Solutions delivered to the very highest governance standards. Future-proofed solutions, informed by big data, and powered by cutting-edge machine learning and automation technologies. From creating an ecosystem of Finance, HR and Procurement services, available on demand via a single point of access, to developing solutions that optimise the patient journey from first appointment to discharge, our focus is on improving and streamlining the user experience of our NHS partners.

We're contributing to local, regional and national NHS success, and its transformation to meet the needs of the 21st century.

What inspires us

Our vision is to help the NHS save money and enhance quality, so it can improve health, innovate to save lives and deliver better outcomes with care and compassion. This inspires us to continually invest in corporate services on behalf of the NHS, developing new digital solutions and automation technologies that deliver faster and more accurate ways of working, alongside an enhanced, more intuitive user experience. By supporting the digital transformation of the NHS in this way, we can help save an ever-increasing amount of time and money for the frontline. And it’s this that inspires our people to continually strive for more. Personal Assistant Julie Watson explains: “I’m proud to be part of the team that has won a number of industry awards this year for our work on automation and the service we’ve provided to the NHS during the pandemic. I just love the commitment, focus and energy of the people I work with every day.”
